VThe-jjv IPednesday night of last
week, at Thespian Hall, in this place, was
the great event and all absorbing topic of
the week, and proved to be a grand success
In many respects. In the number and el
egance of Hie guests, In the beantv of the
young Udlesaud the chivalrous bearing of
theyoong gentlemen. It haa -never been
excelled, if Indeed it haa ever beeu equaled.
Ths music and prompting were good, and
the dancing was exquisite, and fully np to
the latest style of tbe art. Waltzing is be
coming a much more fashionable, as it has
ever been a most fascinating amusement
than formally, and as the lovers of the
dance became more familiar with the evo
lutions and involutions, and the intricacies
of the Intertwining gyrations and giddy
mazes of the gliding, whirling, clasping and
turning 01 ine rouuu uance, nice snases
peare's Adonis, many a fervid young man
wishes tiiat it would never end, and as he
rushes it) to the arms .extended--to receive
bini, he fancies that he reads thoughts like
these: , -.
"Even thus, quoth she, the war-like god
embraced me.
And then she clipped Adonis In her arms;
Even thus, quoth she, the war-like god un
laced me,
As if the boy should use like loving
charms;
Even thus, quoth she, he seized me on my
lips,
And with her lips, did act tbe seizure;
And as she fetched her brjath, right iu he
KklpS,
-And takes her meaning with all Us pleas
ure." Of course this is too high wrought. Kissing
Is not iu the programme, hut clasping, or as
Shakespeare has it, "clipping' Is. One
young man, who did not taste, but only
looked on, said the very sight carried bim
to tbe third heaven of bliss, and like John
In bis npacolypt.ic vision, he saw sights
which I'll is not lawful lor a man to utter."
The young men enjoyed It, and the married
men who were present, seemed to relish It,
too, with all the freshness ol a first taste.
The young men will have to look to their
laurels, or else these benedicts will outstrip
them (not literally 1 lu these scenes. One of
these was so fascinating In his attentions to
a young lady that 'tis said she fainted when
learned that he was a married man. One
other, an old stager at hope, though still a
young man, is .a gentleman of princely
manners, and knows exactly where and
when, as well as how, to say soft and tender
thlugs; and stHl another of Falstifliian pro
portion s, has more recently become enam
ored of these pleasant parties, aud keeps
bobbing around with tbe yonng folks. All
of them leave their charming wives at
home, which perhaps Is a wise precaution,
ns no married lady cares to see her hus
band's arms around other ladies.
spirit rapping Is creating good deal of
excitement 111 certain circles of our young
people. They hnd a meeting a few nights
ago, In one of our palatial mansions, aud
one or more mediums being present, they
had a lively time. The circle assembled
around tbe table, placing their fingers upon
it, aud soon il rose from the floor, and an
attempt, to pull it down by the legs olthe
table resulted in pulling them off, while the
table still moved on, floating as it were, on
ly touched by the tips of tbe Angers of tbe
party; which it contluucd to do until tbe
charm was brokeu by the uproarious laugh
ter of all hands at the perlect success ot
wb at they at first looked ou as an experi
ment. Such Is the report nxada to us by one
of the p'rty, i
Mrs. Martha Bailey, of Neapolls, has been
quite sick lately, but Is again convalescent.
Mrs. Dr. Crump has also been quite sick
recently. '
Col. M. L. Chealrs is just recovering from
a bilious attack.
Mr. Aladison has quite an afflicted family
at this time. In addition lo his daughter,
Yirgie, w ho. has beeu confined to bed lor
several months past, two or three of his
other children are quite sick, and he him
self has been great snfferer with neuralgia
One of our official functionaries, who has
been su Bering lately with colic, was advised
by Bill McM., or Carter's Creek, to try stand
ing ou his bead whenever a spell came on
him. He didn't have to wait long. Ho was
attacked one night la-t week while in bed,
and circumstances being favorable for an
experiment, he placed his head upon the
bed and turned his heels up In the air, but
losing bis balance he fell overboard, wltu a
tremendous crash, startling his wife from
her slumbers, and nearly breaking his nt rk.
She called to him 10 kuow what was tne
matter, and with his usual readiness In fix
ing up things, he said robbers had broken
Into ine house aud knocked bim down.
The next day he "acknowledged the com,"
but not tbe juice of it; bat says now he
doesn't know whether It n standing on
his head or the fail that knocked the colic
out of him.

Sunday evening, tbe 281 Inst,, alter a pro

home, near Harpeth Station, In the bosom
of his loving lamily, and surrounded by de

during the greater part of his sickness were
most intense, experiencing no relief except
when under the influence ot opiates. His
mind was often wandering, but In bin Ineirt
internals, he euto-ed some sweet ,nn, r.t
corn in union wiihUdd, and was enabled to
rejoice In prospect ol a glorious aud blissful
Immortality. Few ministers have ever been
more successful In building up the waste
places of and In winnlnir souls to
Christ. Alany will rise up In the last day,
ana call him blessed for having rescned

That Jim Andrews is a sky scraper may
be ebseryed by the cut of his bair. It may
be said that Duncan Dorris cf the tinci-iom
may also be so judged, for recently It Is aaid
be had bis auburn locks removed close
dawn to the cranium. But there Is a mean
ing In all this an explanation. Jnat one
year ago, in the balloon Buffalo, they started
for the North Star, collided with that luml
nary, causing the immediate rubbing aff of
the bair down to tbe timber line. The bal
loon was not damaged but the planet
knocked considerably out of place, which
accounts for another strange phenomena to
saiiors, whose magnets have failed In sever
al instances loguiae tuem into uarnors nev
er belore discovered. They first set sail
June l.s, aud singularly enough have been
going up ever since. Andrews weighed 186
pounds at thatdate, now ne pulls down the
scales to 21b. Dorris started out with 1X1
pounds avordupois, aud now reacbea pat np
to 1WI pounds. The question bothering the
minds of scientists is whether they ought to
be appointed to conduct the new flying ma
chines now about being brought out in the
East. Both have expressed eagerness lor
another voyage. We might here .slate, how
ever. Hi at since Andrews' brave hearted
bride saw him off, as she feared, for the last
lime, sue has accepted his company, not In
a balloon, but lu a very pleasant residence
in Columbia for life, and he is happy. Dor
ris' cheerful and veracious little wife who
saw him off in the Buff.ilo, congratulates
herself that balloon voyages are not made
from Nashvlilo more than obce in a score
of years or "that husband of hers" would oe

revelation with which to startle the readers
of the "greal and good,' American.
Dr. A. C. Ford, Jolly under all circumstan

collecting photographs of the voyagers and
ornamenting tbe pages of a scrap book with
comic pictures.
Dr. Staley who made up the second with
Andrews In singing "Nearer my God to.
Thee," and "Sara Simons," has emigrated
te Memphis.
John Roberts Is a man that will never,
die, and though we are Just now not ac
quaidted with his whereabouts we (eel quite
sure that a mau of his Infinite (ood nature
is still float iug around in the world.
Prof King has since delighted visitors te
Philadelphia with captive ascensions, and
would doubtless make an ascension at the
stale F'air next fall if the proper effort were
put forth to get him there, il we bad "gas"
in Columbia Andrews and King would cer
tainly go up in a balloon here.
Farewell to F'ord a nobler man never
lived. Alay he always make earthly ascen
sions as he basin the past, and tiually a
grander ascension into the fields of id iss,
where he may not only sing "Nearer my
God to Thee," but "jy my God 1 am."

The loilowiuu lstler from Prof. Balrd, U. S.

Slates Government spends millions of mon

fraying expenses of transportation, etc A
tew thousand dollars would provide a hatch

other sitabliTpcinl, anu In a few years all
tbe streams in the Stale would be slocked
with tbe best quality of fish. No Slate has
finer streams tor game fish than Tennessee,
aud a small amount appropriated for this
purpose would be the wisest and most profi
table expenditure ever made by the State.

Gut. "The young man who loves a beautl.
lul woman, ana cannot persuade her to
marry him In Ibis month of J una, deserves
sympathy. It seems tQ have been apeclally
set apart tor this ruyai and beneficial pur
poee. Lit is ao short it would be sad to
wait a whole year tor June and happiness."
Beautiful, buPt It, But beautiful thoughts,
ithauks to the gods), are not confined to a
single prolific brain. It Is not the first or
second time that great minds have thought
the same thoughts, and expressed them in
the same words rrt;a((M rl tuenwm e.g. in
the issue qt the Hkhai, 11, June 21, ou the
first page, last column bat onr, and last ar
ticle, I tlud the above concerning the
"young man" who loves and wants to mar
ry in tbe month ol Jnne. In another part
of the same Issue, your correspondent Mr.
Idler, of Carter's Creek, at tbe close of his
article, has the same, word for word, with
out any quotation marks. Why Is this thus?
Will, or can Mr. Idler rise and explain? It
may be that the cartthrs er(Wf this
itching propensity rom.es so suddenly to
write Mime heaulf ul thought, that the de
sire oaunoi be resisted, and in the Intense
excitement the quotation marks are for
gotten, or, aa already suggested, the artlole
may la the production uf similar (erlile

deuomlnotion, we never failed to hear htm
when opportunity presented; aud while we
regard him as among the most profound in
